Lu Rang refused to go to the hospital, so Shang Wu took him back.

His tongue was bitten so badly it was unbearable to look at, and the wound was inside his mouth, making it difficult to apply medicine and preventing him from eating.

While Shang Wu was out making a phone call to ask the doctor for advice, less than ten minutes later, she turned around and found Lu Rang looking at the ledger, circling down the problematic entries one by one.

"What are you doing instead of resting?" Shang Wu walked over and put away the ledger.

Lu Rang looked up at her; his eyes were dark and deep, yet they held a smile.

He was about to speak when Shang Wu interrupted him: "Don't speak."

The injury is on the tip of the tongue; you know it will hurt a lot without even thinking about it.

Shang Wu picked up the scarf from the bedside: "I need to go to the hospital now to get you some IV fluids. You can't eat anything right now, you can only drink IV fluids for a few days."

Lu Rang tugged at her sleeve and looked at her quietly.

What's amazing is that even if he doesn't speak, Shang Wu can tell what he's thinking.

She said with a straight face, "Yes, I am indeed in a bad mood."

Lu Rang grabbed her hand and was about to kiss the back of it.

Shang Wu pulled her hand away, preventing him from touching her, and deliberately kept a blank expression: "Next time you do something like this, can you at least talk to me first?"

She didn't want to go in again and see Lu Rang covered in blood, committing suicide.

That scene is still vivid in my mind.

But she knew that no matter whether Lu Rang agreed or not, he would still do it next time.

He was the most persistent and headstrong.

Just as psychological trauma tormented him for many years, putting him in mortal danger countless times, when he met someone worthy of his life, he disregarded everything and faced death head-on.

Shang Wu is now unable to vent her anger; she is simply filled with lingering fear and heartache.

Lu Rang finally seized the opportunity, took her hand, and kissed her fingertips, meaning he agreed.

Shang Wu sighed softly, knowing there was nothing she could do about it, and went out to get the medicine.

She never expected to run into Shang Yunshen.

She went to the pharmacy window to get her IV fluids, and Shang Yunshen also went to the window to get his medicine.

Their eyes met, and Shang Wu glanced at the sleeping pills in his hand.

Who will eat it?

Shang Yun Shen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll eat it."

"You don't need to worry about what you eat?" Shang Wu walked over, frowning. "Is the pressure at work too much?"

Shang Yun Shen pursed his lips and gestured for her to come with him.

The two walked to a bench and sat down.

Shang Yun Shen held the sleeping pills in his hand and chuckled, "Actually, it's nothing. The company was very well-organized when you were in charge. I only took over recently and I'm not as capable as you. I didn't coordinate the division of labor for the projects well, which caused a lot of pressure on the employees."

"Do they have a problem with you?" Shang Wu asked knowingly.

Shang Yunshen: "He had some reservations."

Shang Wu knew this would happen.

But there's nothing we can do.

Shang Yunshen spent three years in prison. His previous major was literature, not business, so it was indeed a bit of a stretch for him to try it out.

But as the successor to the business, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it.

She paused for a few seconds: "I didn't know anything back then either. You know, I studied design. You have to grit your teeth and do it. Practice makes perfect."

Shang Yun Shen looked at her quietly for a few seconds: "You've worked hard, A Wu. You've really worked hard before."

He didn't know what to say; many words were on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't utter this one.

Shang Wu understood what he meant and smiled slightly: "Don't put so much pressure on yourself. Relax and enjoy this challenge. You also have Vice President Wen to help you. I believe you can do it."

Shang Yun Shen nodded, saying that chatting with her for a few minutes made things much better.

He looked at the medicine bottle in his hand: "Actually, it's not just company matters that are keeping me up at night."

Shang Wu's back tensed slightly; he had already guessed what he wanted to say.

"The atmosphere at home hasn't been good lately, you know. Mom's been in a bad mood because of what happened to you, and Dad won't be back from the nursing home for a few more days..."

"It's not my fault that she's in a bad mood; it's her fault. It's because she's always refused to accept Lu Rang."

The bag beside Shang Wu's leg was heavy; it contained Lu Rang's nutrient solution.

"By the way, Lu Rang is cured. He almost lost his life in the process of undergoing forced desensitization treatment."

She picked up her bag, stood up, and looked down at Shang Yun Shen: "You can tell her about this. I'm not trying to get her approval, I just want her to understand that people need patience with each other."

Shang Wu still can't understand why her mother seems like a completely different person, changing her attitude whenever the Yu family is mentioned.

Bad temper, inflexible attitude, and unapproachable.

She could have both family and lovers, but her mother insisted that she make her suffer the pain of choosing between the two.

Shang Wu loves her family, but she cannot abandon Lu Rang.

"Also, Lu Rang and I will be engaged in four days."

Shang Yun Shen looked up in surprise: "So fast? Has the Yu family accepted you?"

"If the accounting issues are resolved smoothly, they will accept me, and it is highly likely that things will go smoothly."

Shang Wu smiled at him, then turned and left without looking back.

After leaving the hospital and getting into her car, she still picked up her phone and called Aying.

"Mr. Shang... oh no, Ms. Shang, why are you calling me all of a sudden?"

Ah Ying is currently working for Shang Yun Shen, so she was quite happy to receive her call so suddenly.

“My brother is too busy to manage the company on his own right now and needs some help. Try to get Xiao Dong out of here and have him mentor my brother. Keep an eye on his mother, just in case she does anything that could harm the company.”

Shang Wu still acknowledged Xiao Dong's abilities. After all, he had followed Zhou Yanci for so many years and was experienced, even more so than A Ying.

This is the reason he regained his freedom.

Regardless of whether Xiao Dong will be kicked out of the company in the future, at least for now he will do his best to help Shang Yun Shen in order to prove his worth.
